Hi,
46 years of age is not a constraint for job search. your age will be a problem means you're focusing on feelings rather than on facts. To correct your focus ask yourself: what is making me feel old and why have I lost my enthusiasm? Age should be an advantage, not a disadvantage. You have experience and wisdom. You're more responsible and less prone to mistakes. You may have slowed down physically, but thanks to your advanced knowledge and skill you have. Making a good impression is half the battle in an interview. But the best had enthusiasm, energy, and professional goals for themselves. Instead of saying "I have many years to go in my career" consider, "I have many things I would like to accomplish to call my professional life a success," and then list some of those things.
You need to be as ambitious as you were when you first entered the workforce. You need to project this during interviews. Let the interviewer know why you’re excited about the opportunity and what you can bring to company.
You can see your years of experience as an asset or a liability in the job search. It is a matter of perspective. If you have the proper attitude and approach, you’ll be a lot more likely to convince the recruiter of your potential value to their company. Your cup is not half full or half empty. It is very full…of experience. Better you search for job in the areas of expertise.

If you have a genuine reason of leaving a job, than obviously you are liable rejoining a job.
May i know you want to rejoin in same company or new company? If you joining a new company than you should have been a relieving certificate as well all type of certificate of previous company.

Thanks Narayan for your reply. I have not lost my enthusiasm and i am confident and also positive about myself. I found most of the companies are saying that they are young and saying that my age was a constraint though i have good experience. That made put this post. Specially women who has career breaks and restarting it again in corporate world is a challenge.
